"There is no greater agony than bearing an untold story inside of you."

- Maya Angelou

ABOUT

ABOUT ME

Without a mutually respectful and positive connection, therapy will often be ineffective.

 

I strive to create and maintain a relaxed, supportive and honest therapeutic relationship. One where you can feel comfortable discussing any aspect of your life that "doesn't feel right." 

I allow you to maintain control in your treatment- building safety and security and providing support and insight to help you create change in meaningful ways.

I believe that our past experiences, as early as infancy, can affect the development of our selves and can negatively or positively impact how we connect with our world.  These life experiences may have lasting influences on our lives. I will help you explore how your personal history may be guiding the ways in which you build and maintain relationships, cope with stressors and view yourself within your daily routines.

My clinical style is quite eclectic and we will work together to find the best modality of treatment for you.  This may be supportive talk therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, trauma-focused therapies, EMDR, mindfulness, etc. 

I am providing therapy session via telehealth and in-person as clinically appropriate.
